Hello.
A summary account is an account whose balance is the sum of balances from multiple detail accounts. Use summary accounts to perform online summary inquiries, as well as speed the processing of financial reports, MassAllocations, and recurring journal formulas.
For a parent value you can define and move child value ranges for it, and you can assign this value to a rollup group. You can use a rollup group to identify a group of parents for reporting or other application purposes.
